Hmm... I assume you still have eth0 defined as something like this

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.1.100
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 192.168.1.0
        broadcast 192.168.1.255
        gateway 192.168.1.1

If that is the case, I can't make my host talk to the network.

this is my configuration:

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.1.100
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 192.168.1.0
        broadcast 192.168.1.255
        gateway 192.168.1.1
auto br0
iface br0 inet static
        address         10.10.10.100
        netmask         255.255.255.0
        network         10.10.10.0
        broadcast       10.10.10.255
        gateway         10.10.10.1
        bridge_ports    eth0
        bridge_stp      on
        bridge_maxwait  0

As far as switching distros... I would rather not considering I know
debian better than any other distro.
